wow, that was exhausting... made for the TAW-monkey theme "face in the crowd" and this is not at all how i envisioned it to be. and as you might notice i got a little lazy.. i like it, though. but i've never been so energy-drained from colouring a drawing before. i think it's movie watching time.

a little piece for TAW-monkey's current theme ''time traveller'' - i have two other themes on paper, but it's not so easy to get them scanned at the moment, and also i keep forgetting to bring them to work (where the scanner is). Consequently this is done in photoshop-tvpaint-photoshop-tvpaint-photoshop (...). with my tiny A6 tablet, haha. drawing everything digitally is so time consuming!

There you go, 6 hours of my life:

ahh the compression on blogger is horrible! click here to see this drawing on flickr.

Last sunday Kajsa invited me to join her family on a trip to the forest, and it was lovely! we walked from Frognerseteren to Skjennungstua and back again. These photos don't really capture exactly how beautiful and wonderful everything was - but i wanted to share them anyway :) I want to live in this forest! And there should be a river, like the one that flows through Oslo, and with a lot of amazing colourful fish! and i would lie beside it every night and listen to the water's trickling.

it's a total win when one figures out how to export the right format from adobe premiere. this time it only took me 40 minutes! :D this is my updated showreel - now featuring shots from my graduation film (væsen) and music!

as you see, i recently redesigned the layout of my blog. (i was getting so terribly tired of the black background it had before)

also, i just added a new feature thatallows one to follow my blog updates via email. i added the same feature to TAW-monkey and signed up to try it out, and it works :) you get an email with the post sent directly into your internetty mailbox.

and i have been wondering why everyone loves tumblr so much for quite some time now, so i decided to make one myself as i was going to create a new blog anyway, because i want to keep this one as it is. on this tumblr. -site you will find links to creative sites i find interesting and links to artists i get inspiration from, and other stuff. (for the moment it consists mainly of links to places like "illustration friday", but more will come :) )

next week i will update my animation showreel, so you can look forward to that :) and currently i am working on a little film on my own, but it's too early in the process to post about it yet. and as i wrote on my portfolio site, i will this fall be interning at the studio Mikrofilm in Norway, which i am very excited about!

one more drawing for TAW-monkey - also an old theme :) it is my goal to get some of those done, that i always wanted to draw but either didnt have the time to do or the right idea for. i tried to experiment with only using variations of 'red' in this one, but somehow the orange yellow found its way in as well! well, orange is also a friend of red, in a way :)

You know the end will come one day, but sometimes it takes you by surprise anyway. I just finished cleaning my desk at school - saying goodbye to our little Væsen Home, so difficult to leave that place - missing our little væsen world and our little væsen family so much already!

a long time ago i agreed to do a poster for my friend, Kristine Hanskov. She studies classical double bass at the Danish Academy of Music on her 3rd year, and her bachelor exam is a concert - for which she needs a poster and a printed list of what she is going to play. I did 95 % of the line drawing a month ago, and finished it this weekend. In the end she also needed a postcard, which i made quite similar to the cover of the programme, since the amount of text was more or less the same.

Here are some more drawings from the preproduction of our bachelor film, Væsen. the first one is a turnaround of the king's head that i did based on a crown design Adrian did, and a king face design that Jody did.

These next ones are the designs i did for the deer antlers and the prince's inside princy wear, when we see him in the beginning of the film. Quite unfortunately, we came to a result we liked pretty fast - unfortunate in the sense that i was rather enjoying drawing these intricate and ornate elements! :)

and we modified the prince's design a bit (back to the original idea) - this is a new turnaround of him, with his fancy inside princy clothes.
